This from the lawyer who successfully argued the tariff case before SCOTUS, casts huge doubt over the applicability of the statute the @POTUS is relying on to slap down a new 15 percent global tariff.

This rumor is plausible. Justice Scalito has announced the release date for his upcoming book: The first Tuesday in October. (One day after the Court's new term starts.)
As the folks at Above the Law put it: "He's either retiring or he doesn't care about how well his new book sells."
This is now my daily art meditation. I love that you post so often and the work is always exquisite. I now enlarge the image on my big monitor and spend a few minutes meandering in your magical markmaking.

BORN ON THIS DAY in 1889, Sophie Henriette Gertrud Taeuber-Arp was a Swiss artist who married Jean Arp, a leading figure in the Dada movement.
Sophie is now considered one of the most important geometric abstractionists of the 20th century.
Hilarious!

And Lucien Freud too, in the portraiture. I have to get to know this Michael Taylor better - he's clearly among the greats. Thanks for posting.
